Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    if this is true I might actually stop being lazy and mess with Linux for my personal systems

    [–] unconsciousvoidling@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    I haven’t found it that difficult. Just take the plunge.

    I'm not concerned with difficulty just that it'll take a bit of my time

    yes I'm lazy

    It's very gradual and fun because it's new. A lot of you being lazy is also just your safety mechanism kicking in so you don't dive into every single urge all the time.

    Once you dip your toe, you'll be at it for a long and good time.

    I'm an early adopter of Linux (early as in 96-97) but I also run MacOS and Windows so I'm I tell you this from an unbiased point of view. Linux has never been easier to run. My daily driver is a ThinkPad running Pop!_OS Linux and I never have to think about it. I just installed and everything ran.

    I don't game on my daily driver, I use MacOS for music. At this point Windows is relegated to Adobe Creative Suite, GeForce Now, and the occasional game I can't run on Linux or GeForce Now.

    Truly ungovernable, mad respect.

    The enshittening continues. Why charge people once when you can charge them repeatedly until they decide enough is enough and leave?

    Enshittification referred to products and services that were previously good

    Hey now, Windows XP was pretty decent!

    [–] nickhammes@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    By the standards of its day, I'd even say Windows XP was good.

    It was if you pretend anything before service pack 1 didn't happen, I saw so many infected machines back then it wasn't even funny. And I guess the more professional users saw it as a downgrade from Windows 2000.
